*Kero nods to Champhy, then warps space and teleports in front of Keva...meanwhile, Champhy sees that his spell has created a dopplegagner of himself, and it has finished the rolls before dissolving*

keva looks up from the meat pie he is nibbling on and sighs... yer not me mum.... he grumbles testily... or me da... so bugger off... ok? i'm hungry... i'm not kidding ye uncle kero.... i must have a tape worm or something... i eat like a horse and never get full... ma just smiles when i complain... uncle jor just laughs and da shakes his head... but champhy never understands... sometimes i feel like i am starving before she lets me eat anything... they don't mind me eating so much... so why does she? (note... keva is getting quite close to adolescence... and he is very much a kitsune... food just isn't doing it for him anymore..... but no one thinks he's ready for the facts of life just yet.... rolleyes he is rather young at heart...

*Kero knows its not for him to decide when to tell Keva...but he does decide to help him a bit*
Okay, kiddo...hold still...*Places his hands on Keva's sides*...no tapeworms...or other parasites...though ye need a bath...and as for food...
*Kero teaches him how to reach into the Void and grab a piece of food...it's suprisingly easy*
Now...this'll be our little secret, okay...ye still have to come to meals...

*Kero smiles at her*
Of course...in the realm of unrealized possibility...I think I can manage a garden...and even a miniature sun to help it grow...get packed, then. We leave tongiht...preferably before anyone even knows we're going...

*Kero laughs...and Shia realizes he was kidding...*
Don't worry, kiddo...go say goodbye to everyone...I have to go and do something very quick...*Goes and looks into the barn at Skull Dancer...whose soul is still torn to shreds...placing his hand on the horses muzzle, Kero calls one of those shreds to himself, placing it into a jar, and leaving...he conjures his motorbike and waits, knowing Rhea and his godkids will be there soon...and so they are...all of them sit and wait for Shia to say her goodbyes...*

shia soon appears, with an enormous sack over her shoulder and several small packages in her arms... ma said to give these to rhea... they're for the kiddo's but they're not to get them until we get home... says shia arranging everything on the scale so it won't fall off... then she holds out her arms to the three young quets, who join her for the ride....

*Kero and Rhea get on their respective vehicles...and off they all go...two hours later, they pull up to Kero's office...and in they go...Kero stretches out as he dons his favorite robe and regrows his scales...and to Shia's suprise, Rhea pulls a sheet of Aethr around herself as well*
It's good to be home...

shia nods and enlists the kids in helping her carry her things to her room... then she returns to the main room with the quets and their presents in tow... she gives the boxes to rhea and smiles... yer to give them when ye feel they have earned them.... she says with a wink...
